Ever since I started quilling I spend a lot of time searching for quilling ideas and bookmarking them . I found a page bookmarked long ago but quite forgotten here, I found this beautiful white on white quilled work. I was amazed all over again at how the coils can be shaped into so many ways to give life to strips of paper. Every quiller has a different talent and strength and I feel a lot of respect for the ones who can come up with such wonderful ideas.I quilled this and learnt (and enjoyed) some more quilling. I don't own a single book on quilling, and I am thankful to talented people around the world who share their work and help other people learn the craft . Thanks for stopping by.

Here is a quilled miniature clown for Akhil's friend for his birthday. Making this little guy really cheered me up.

I promised Akhil a miniature clown for his friend but put it off as long as I could .Although I am not very confident about quilling miniatures , when I finally had to start making this doll I really enjoyed the process.It turned out to be lot easier than the quilled hanuman which had lot of minute details.

It is still not perfect but I fell better about this doll than all my previous ones and it stands so well.Except for the wire to support the balloon(it is a balloon!) and a small bling on the bow the doll is completely made of paper.

I started with the idea of using roses on my card and ended up making this whimsical Valentine's day card. These roses were made using this quilled roses tutorial .The only difference is instead loose coil in the center , I added more petals.The difficult part in this card was in shaping the multistrips.
